Very disappointed, title says a delicious low- carb, gluten-free alternative to wheat, which is not true. Recipes have sugar, cornstarch, can beans, bottle barbecue sauce, cornmeal, brown sugar, powder sugar, 2 cups pineapple, 3 or more bananas, 3 to 6 cups strawberries, apples, peaches, honey, corn syrup, 2 cups carrots, and more. i have been low carbing for years, all these things are on our NO CAN EAT list. Plus no nutrition list. Was looking for recipes that are cooked with coconut flour, gluten-free and low carb. Sorry but feel the title gave me a false idea on what the cookbook was about. If you are not low carbing, you might like the book.

From the subtitle, which includes the words 'low carb', I assumed that there would be low-carb recipes that a person on a serious low-carb diet (Atkins, Bernstein's Diabetes Diet) could consume without going over their carb count for the meal.

I was dismayed to find that not only was that not the case, nutrition information on the recipes was not included--- not even a 'net carb' count.

In addition, many recipes included sugar. Some had 'reduced sugar', but sugar is still sugar. It's not a health food. There were no tested sugar-free versions of any of the recipes. A couple recipes also included bananas, which are a source of natural sugars that most low-carb dieters cannot eat.

I feel the book could be improved greatly by the simple act of providing the nutritional information--- carbs, fat, protein and calories--- for each recipe. Removing the 'low-carb' from the subtitle would help keep people from mistakenly believing this was a book of low-carb recipes suitable for a low-carb or ketogenic diet.

If your health does not require you to be on an actual low-carb diet and you are only concerned with gluten-free issues, or reducing your daily carb intake a little, there may be a lot of recipes in this book that you can use. The general information on using coconut flour may come in handy even for low-carbers (though I'm not sure I'd advise buying the book just for that.)

It's also possible that if you are willing to look up the nutritional information on the ingredients and make adaptations, you could turn some of these recipes into low-carb and sugar-free versions. If you have that ability, this book may be a great addition to your recipe book collection.

This is still, after all this time and all of the self-published Coconut Flour cookbook options that have hit the market since, the best option for a Coconut Flour cookbook. Fife really took his time to get the measurements right and to be clear on exactly how to get the recipes to turn out correctly. I'm not saying none of the others are worth trying, as I have and use several. I am saying that this is the go to, the most accurate, the most usable and user friendly, not to mention actually useful in what it can help you cook, out of all of the books I've tried for cooking exclusively with Coconut Flour. The recipes are varied and there are about three times as many of them, as compared to the average. He gives low carb variations, so that you don't have to use sugar in everything, and there are some variations which allow for using other flour combinations if you want. His was the first I ever found, the first I ever tried, and is the Coconut Flour equivalent to The Joy Of Cooking corrected 1967 edition or the following 1975 edition, basically, the gold standard. Good luck in your efforts to eat healthier and escape the wheat-go-round.

This book offers an abundance of recipes with what the title says, Coconut Flour. But what's great about it is it offers a low sugar option for each and every recipe. Which is great for people who don't want all that sugar in their diet. It uses the Tuvia droplets as a partial substitute because you can't use that stuff as a complete substitute for sugar. So, it's part Truvia and part honey or whatever sweetener goes into the recipe. Which I find great. In fact I just ordered some shredded unsweetened coconut for the Coconut Muffins and I can't wait to try them. They sound so yummy. Coconut flour does not taste so much like coconut that you have to bake everything coconut. Blueberry Muffins, etc are perfect to cook with coconut flour. Try the book if you're looking to cut out white flour and want to use Coconut Flour as a substitute.

I wanted to try some coconut recipes. I don't have any allergy or dietary restrictions that made me buy this. I was just interested in eating healthier and I started to use coconut oil so I thought I'd try this as well.

I must say the reviews here helped. I was prepared for the large amount of eggs needed for each recipe.We made the bacon muffins (which the name pretty much says it all) and I loved them. They are perfect for breakfast.Just heat them for 10 seconds in the microwave to warm them and go. I plan to make several of the muffin recipes forfast to-go breakfast ideas. You definitely can taste the eggs in these if that bothers you. But I loved it.

We also made the chocolate cookies which were not a hit. It's possible that we got something wrong in the ingredients. Or maybe its that my flour wasn't sifted. But either way these cookies made us so thirsty we'd be running for water with every bite.

I am hopeful that the bread recipes which are expected to be more dense would be good.I would still recommend this book to anyone wanting to test out coconut flour.
